    Fighting

    If anyone here has some tips or expirence from fighting could you please give me a hand?

    Lately at my highschool a group of "scene hardcore kids" have been harassing me to the point where there texting me 24/7, leaving me messages, making facebook profiles about me and then this week they started harassing girls Im close to. And today they were like throwing rocks at a girl im really good friends with so I walked over there and knocked one of them on there ass and they all formed a little gang on one side of me and started yelling things at me calling me a pussy so I put my stuff on the ground and stepped up infront of them and they all backed away and thats the final straw

    Were suppose to fight friday and I dont know who they are bringing but Im bring some friends of mine and I want to know if theres any thing really important to remember when it goes down.

    Im bigger then all of them, height and weight and muscle wise so I know that will help me, Im really quick and do endurance training on a punching bag. I know how to get up quickly if I get knocked down and how to take hits but yeah any help is appricated

    It will put whoever gets messed up the most from that crowd in his place. I know fighting shouldnt be an option but when this happens should I just back down and take harassment endlessly and let friends be harrassed, girls no less.

    I dont provoke anything

    Im just kind of unsure about willing to get suspended for 3 days for fighting on school grounds but if I have to I will, they confront me everyday pretty much and I dont back down but im just sick of it, they think like 10 people standing there will make me back down

    Ok a few things. Keep in mind this is coming from someone that trains MMA.

    First, this is pretty stupid. If they keep harassing you just go tell an administrator. They're emo fags. Who cares if they tell you you're being a bitch?

    After you do tell an administrator, if nothing happens, here's what you do.
    Wait till there is just 1 emo kid harassing you. Get in his face and run your mouth and really try to get under his skin. Provoke him like hell until he hits/pushes/whatever. Then hit him really hard.

    As far as this high school gang war ****, don't do that. I've heard so many times of something like this happening and then someone bringing a knife/gun/whatever. I wouldn't put it past these kids.

    If you do get in a fight, it's kind of hard to explain what to do online, but assuming you're semi-coordinated and relatively powerful ... just throw punches. Don't try and bring the fight to the ground and tackle or anything. Just keep aiming for the other guy's face and punching straight ahead (don't throw hooks). Protect your face with your hands and bat away anything that's thrown at you, but don't be overly defensive.

    What would phonebooks do....?

    I don't know about the administrator thing, I know its stupid to follow **** like that but everyone in my high school is really against cops and snitching so I don't know what would be worse, fighting on school grounds or reporting him and everyone looking down on me for it.

    Whenever the one kid that started is around me by himself he walks away really quick and says nothing until he has like 8 people behind him so I doubt it.

    Im thinking of getting one of them to shove me and decking him, is it reasonable to say that there "shove" was a light punch if they ask who started the fight?

    If the other kid starts the fight, you can at least avoid assault charges, but you're going to almost definitely get suspended.

    Just go tell an administrator. Nobody is going to support the emo kids, everyone hates emo kids. Plus, things like this blow over after a couple weeks. Plus, if you do tell an administrator and nothing happens, then you actually might be able to avoid getting suspended if you do get in a fight.

    LOL


    there ya go. when you see the kid by himself hurrying by you, confront him then if you want to go through with it. that way if he starts you throw him a sick beating, if he backs down in front of people he looks like a bitch. The whole group thing usually isn't a good idea. You may be tough, but it's hard fighting with fists coming from all directions.

    If you go into a fight afraid of getting hit your going to lose, doesn't mean just leave your chin out there.

    You can't just learn to fight its something that takes years and years of training before you really even understand the concept but just remember that your fists aren't your only weapons theres elbows and knees ( I wouldn't throw a kick unless you've been trained on how to)

    Dont do it, do not show up to the fight.

    Only fight if you have to, people that do this to you are not people.

    In the human DNA, there are alot of different heritage material, they might be the result of older humanoid DNA sneaking out. They sure are acting like agressive pre homo sapiens sapiens apes.

    Sit home and play some video games or order a pizza with your friends, go fishing or walk a dog or something...do NOT go to the fight.
    A big thanks to all my friends in the USA, I am deeply grateful for your hospitality and kindness.

    This pretty much sums it up. They're homo's. Don't give them the time of day.

    If they confront you tell them you're not going to fight. If, and only if, one of them tries to hurt you, crack him in the nose and he will quickly lose all will to fight.

    So these are just a bunch of little emo kids? I didn't know emo kids made fun of other kids I thought they got made fun of? So what started this whole thing? do they think your a funny nerd or something? Why are they harrassing you constantly? It's weird that you're bigger than them and they are doing this, I dunno I just don't understand the whole thing. But ya everyone loves the kid that kicks the emo's ass so you should do it if you don't mind the consequences.

    They don't make fun of me, they tell me to get a life and do something besides lifting weights and people just think there ****ing ******ed.

    It started because I was friends with them in 8th grade and they turned emo so I stopped talking to them and recently I guess I broke one of there noses at a metal concert 2 weeks ago so they started harassing me trying to get me pissed off by doing stupid annoying **** and harassing girls I talk to.

    They think there all tough and everybody's afraid of them but there 120 pounds and no muscle and they have gauges in there ears and wear girl jeans and think im scared. Completely opposite of it though

    Ok, Ponyboy
    (sad thing is that movie was probably made before you were born)

    Anyways, make sure you have enough guys with you, so you aren't overwhelmed by numbers. Also make sure those idiots don't bring any knives or other weapons.

    Do they have a leader type guy. If so I would try to talk to him before this thing goes down. See if violence can be avoided, if it can't let him know that whatever happens that you are going to throw him a beating every chance you get. Let him know that he and his friends may get you as a group but you are going to see him alone and everytime you do, he is going to get the crapped kicked out of him. Everytime his friends mess with one of yours, your going to kick the crap out of him, only him. You see a Facebook page, your throwing him a beating. Get the picture?

    No one likes a snitch. Besides, eventually it will get to the physical altercation even if the administrator is alerted. Throw the first punch, that's my advice.

    Before you go to train everyday, think about the less fortunate and what they would give to just have the opportunity to be training like a madman.

    Gettin' stabby is kidstuff. Where ya been?
    Out of the night that covers me,Black as the Pit from pole to pole,I thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul. In The fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance my head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade And yet the menace of the years finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate how charged with punishments the scroll,I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
